Description AH means Alternate History.

In this timeline the sea level rises even faster, than it does in the real world, causing some vulnerable countries (such as Egypt) to take actions in order to minimize the losses. Unfortunately, sometimes it's hard to make things right...

I appreciate any language corrections you can make!

UPD. Looks like nobody on AH.com noticed a small, but essential detail on the map (maybe it's even the second PoD, who knows), so let's call it an Easter egg. Will anyone find it?

This is a nice, clear informative illustration! Especially with all the elements like the Earth reference, the text box and the depiction of the submerged areas. The colour scheme works well too. I like the idea of this map and the idea of a Lake Qattara.

Nice style!

That would be seriously damaging for Egypt, they don´t have much fertile land anyway ;/

Currently they have about 70,000 sq km of agricultural land and 90 million inhabitants, which means yes, Egypt itself is a bit short of food.

Hehe, is the easter egg the Qattara Depression now being a lake?

Actually, it is an alternate history map, so I used only the elevation level data and some estimates, not academic sources.

Oh I'm sorry. I thought this was a post on Political-Deviants. xD I guess I should've known reading "In this timeline."

No problem.

I'm just sad about the [AH] prefix not working. I probably should mark my alternate history maps in some other way.
